Matmen Meet T ough Foes By Bll.I. MORRIS Emerald Sports Writer Oregon wrestling coach Ed Johns looked con cerned. He had just recevied a call from the Washing ton State wrestling coach and had learned that the Cougars have their strongest mat team in five years coming to Eugene Saturday to compete in a double dual meet with Oregon and Southern Oregon College. Besides that, the Duck wrestlers face a power ful team from Central Washington State College Friday night CWSC is the only team that has beaten WSL this year. After looking over the rosters of the opposition, Johns forecasts "a real tough weekend." George vs. Bjorge One of the outstanding matches in Friday night's meet will feature 147 lb Pacific Coast Champion Gerald George of CWSC. against Ore gon’s Monrad Bjorge. In Saturday's dual match, the Cougars will have three outstanding wrestlers. Dennis Albritten, who wrestles in 137 It), class, won the Washington Invitational meet this year, as did his 157 lb. teammate Bill Hensley. WSU also has a strong wrestler in the 167 It), class, Dick Adams. But the Ducks are not without top men.. Kent Studebaker and Doug Robertson are both unde feated this year. Johns praised Robertson highly for his 98 win over Eastern Oregon College’s Bill Quant in a match here. Matson Out The Duck's heavyweight, I’at Matson, is out with an injured knee, but Rick Burns took over the unlimited class Saturday and did an outstand ing job against EOC. according to Johns Burns will be starting for the Ducks this weekend. Friday night’s match will be at 7 p.m. in Mc Arthur Court. Saturday's match will begin at 3 p.m., following the gymnastic competition. Monrad Bjorge Works for a Pin vs. EOC Emerald SPORTS Seltismier Out Frosh Set Test Against Lawyers By PAL L POI.SKY Emerald Sports Writer The Oregon Frosh will attempt to amend their ways Saturda> night and get back on the win ning trail as they host the Oregon Law School at 8 p m. in Mac Court. . , . The Ducklings, who dropped two encounters last weekend and now hold a 4-2 season record, will have to contend with a pretty strong Law School team coach ed by Wendell Basye. In their initial outing of the 1964-65 season, the Law School will field a team with height, weight and good college varsity experience. Two Big Men Ron Anderson and Tim Hind man are the two big men Ander son. a 6'5” forward and center, played freshman basketball and had three years of varsity foot ball as an undergraduate at Ore gon Hindman is also 6’5" and a big man on the boards wTith size to go along with his height. Both Anderson and Hindman were teammates at Lincoln High School in Portland. The other starters for the Law School include Garry Rossi, Mike Schrunk and Art Tarlow. Rossi placed three years of basketball at OSU. Schrunk play ed college basketball at Portland State and w’as the Vikings’ leading scorer last, year Tarlow’ attended Whitman College in Walla Walla. Wrash., where he starred before corning to Oregon to complete his education in law. Coach Don Kirscta reports that the loss of Steve Settlemier with an asthma condition has really hurt the nucleus at the guard po sition. He has inserted Pete Hinman at a forward position using Mike Nicksic and Dick Schaerer at the guards, but the Ducklings are just too short on the front line. Settlemeir Out Settlemier is reportedly out for at least another week by doctors' orders and so far he has missed 10 days of practice. In addition, the Frosh mentor noted that his team was sloppy in practice this week and looked IM Schedule Basketball 3:50 Court 40, Morton B vs. Adams B Court 43, Dyment B vs. Spiller B 4:35 Court 40, Burgess B vs. Wat son B Court 43, Parsons B vs. Col lier B 5:15 Court 40, Alpha Tau Omega B vs. Chi Psi B Court 43, Sigma Nu B vs. Phi Gamma Delta B Handball 4:00 Stafford vs. Ganoe 4 45 Black Knights vs. DeBusk. tired from last week's long trip to Vancouver. Kirsch explained, “We’ve got to be in better shape with the tough part of the season ahead and the OSU series only a week and a half away.” For Saturday’s game, Kirsch plans to start 6'2" Roy Berg, and 6'3'' Ken Smith at forwards, along with 6’7” John Pinkstaff at cen ter to get some height on the front line. Gymnasts Face UBC, Hope to Bounce Back By BOB TENNENT Emerald Sports Writer After absorbing two losses on the road the Oregon gymnastics team will attempt to bounce back this weekend against the Univer sity of British Columbia. Starting time for the meet is scheduled for 1:00 at Mac Court. Gymnastics coach Dick Smith said. This is one meet which should go right down to the wire before its outcome is determin ed.'' He added. “Our boys are ready for this meet, they think they can win if they hit their rou tines.” In reference to last week’s losses to the Washington schools 1 The World Outside UO By PHIL SEMAS Emerald Sports Editor News from other campuses. . . The recent attempt to get rid of football coach Bob Titchenal at San Jose State College was led mainly by the student council there. The student leaders got the idea they knew more about what makes a good coach than their athletic department. But the administration squelched the attempt. And rightly so. Student politicians seldom have enough knowledge about anything—especially athletics—to make intelligent decisions regarding who’s good and who isn’t. Battle? It Was A Slaughter Headline in the Oregon State Barometer: “Wolverines Rout Beavers 34-7 in Rose Bowl Battle.” Comment: “Battle” might be stretching it a bit. “Slaughter” would be a better word. A Barometer editorial noted that OSU might be able to get Tommy Prothro back as athletic director in a couple of years. “Slats Gill’s term won’t last forever,” said the story. “The director of intercol legiate athletics is a position that seems to fit Prothro’s idea of challenge very well.” It’s a nice idea but we doubt if Prothro would really prefer administrating to coaching. Besides, OSU’s assistant athletic director, Jim Barratt, is the logical choice for that job. No Technicals In the Midwest It became apparent during the Far West Classic that the 10-7 technical violation is not called everywhere in the country. The visiting coaches, especially Taylor Locke of Army and Ray Eddy of Purdue were surprised to see the rule so rigidly enforced. And later > Oregon’s Steve Belko attacked the rule because, among other reasons, it is enforced differently in different parts of the country. All this makes quite interesting a note in the Michigan State University student daily. “The rule hasn’t materialized,” says MSU coach Forddy Anderson, according to the paper, “and there have been no technicals called as yet (Jan. 7) I don’t think the new rule will have the impact previously thought.” Maybe we should get some of those Midwest officials out here. Nearly every coach on the Coast, including UCLA’s highly respected John Wooden, has been given at least one “T.” Thought: What will happen at the NCAA tournament in Portland. If West Coast officials are used, there could be some mighty angry coaches from other parts of the country. Oregon Notes: Bob Berry will marry Suzanne Polen, last year’s Dolphin queen. Oregon tackle Lov/ell Dean made the Academic All-America second team, based on grades and football ability. Michigan’s Bob Timber lake led the parade. Washington’s Rick Redman also made the first | unit. THIS IS NOT A GIMMICK! HOW IS YOUR MEMORY? “Quizzes don’t bother me any more!” “When I learn something now, I know that X know it.” "Magic Memory makes it easy to learn.” “I wish I had had this course when I went to college." This is what students of the fabulous teacher-developed Magic Memory Course say. It isn't really Magic—it just seems like magic when you learn how to use your memory. You can master the basic principles in a few hours. Complete course (or information mailed at once). Course $10. Magic Memory Course, Box 725, Sutherlin, Oregon 97479 coach Smith said he was pleas ed with the effort of the team. A Team Now "At the present they think as themselves as a team, and not as individuals. They are more con cerned about the team score than their own score and this Rives them the advantage over their inexperience." lie continued, "Last weekend we found the outstanding leader ship and I think that they have jelled into a squad." Coach Smith singled out Larry Haymos, Alex McNeill. .John Pal mer, John Turchi and Al West as doing a fine job in the two Washington meets West performed consistently, placing second in the all-around in both meets and increased h i s score to 43 85 points. Turchi Outstanding Turchi grabbed off a pair of first and seconds over the week end; both of his firsts were in the trampoline McNeill and Palmer both re ceived scores above 7.5, which is better than average.
